Upcoming Events

KRP is currently closed for the moment.

Hello Racefans,

The entire family here at Kalaeloa Raceway Park would like to extend our warmest appreciation and thanks to our competitors, sponsors, spectators, friends and family for your gracious support throughout the past six years. We have loved and enjoyed every minute of it, and we hope you did as well. Motorsports is in our blood, and although the gates have been closed, it isn't over yet.

Although we have ceased operations, our fight carries on through the legal system where we will continue to battle for our rights and the need for a motorsports facility here on Oahu. Rest assured that we are not giving up, and this is not the end. We look forward to racing with all of you again in the near future.

If you'd like to send a letter of support, we'd appreciate it. Simply click on the main banner at the top of the page. We'll have updates on our legal battle here, so please keep an eye out on our site.

At the following link you'll find a "Petition to Save Kalaeloa Raceway Park". We're asking for your help and support in gathering signatures via the following request:

"We the undersigned petition the Hawaiian Homes Commission and the Department of Hawaiian Home Lands topreserve the race track set up by SORT LLC because it is unique and there is no other race track available on theisland of Oahu and there is no other place to bring Hawaiian and other youths at risk to teach them automobileand truck mechanics, suspensions and body and fender dynamics and repairs and the taking away of this facilityand training area will irreparably harm these children and teenagers in both the Hawaiian community and thecommunity at large. We respectfully request the Hawaiian Homes Commission to reconsider its past action takenon June 16, 2014 and hold another public meeting where we can attend and give testimony about the value of thisfacility."

Due to recent events I feel it is necessary to let all of you know the situation currently with Kalaeloa Raceway Park.

On Monday morning, June 16th, we filed suit against DHHL and the Hawaiian Homes Commission due to their failure to adopt proper policy in violation of state law required by Chapter 91 HRS, their conspiracy to damage our reputation and business, as well as their negligent infliction of emotional distress. Their failure to properly adopt rules and regulations to establish proper policy for handling of the Hawaiian home lands, in effect, voids their current permitting and right of entry system.

This situation affects not only us, but all tenants under their new right of entry system.

While serving the lawsuit to DHHL, we discovered that a Hawaiian Homes Commission Meeting was being held that same morning with the intent to vote on several key issues concerning KRP. We were not notified of this meeting nor were we invited to testify on our behalf although our usual very vocal and malicious minority opponent was.

As many of you know, we have attempted to rectify our current situation with DHHL several times but were left hanging due to the HHC's failure to hold quorum on three separate occasions. Because of this, we formally requested a Contested Case Hearing so that we could present our case to the Commission and attempt to rectify our situation.

Item C-2 on Monday's meeting agenda was our request to hold the above hearing. DHHL recommended to the HHC members that this request be denied to which HCC voted in agreement. The end result is that we were allowed absolutely zero opportunity to present our case to the commission.

In addition, at this same meeting the Commission voted to revoke our permit for the property and effectively shut down our current operations.

This corruption and discrimination stems from the Governor's office...we do not have the support of our Governor Neil Abercrombie. However, we do have the support of Senator Clayton Hee as well as Senator Maile Shimabukuro. Of special note was the support of HHC member, Renwick “Uncle Joe” Tassil, who symbolically excused himself from the voting in protest of our treatment. We thank them for their support.

For now, have to let the legal proceedings follow its course. Until then, it is business as usual for the foreseeable future. We will continue to hold our events and invite all of you to join us in support.

From the beginning, this has about providing a home for our community of displaced motorsports enthusiasts as well as their families and friends. It's about you, the racer...this is your fight as well as ours.

We will not give up, and we will fight to keep everything that we have accomplished together.
